Abstract: Generic type of the invention: pilot-controlled hydraulic valve for changing over the valve input pressure (p1) between a working pressure value and a lower circulating pressure value, in particular a pressure limiting valve. A main flow path is provided here with inlet (16) and outlet (17), a main valve (HV) arranged in the main flow path and a pilot control valve (VV1) operatively connected to the main valve. The main valve (HV) is provided with a resiliently elastic reset element (6). Object of the invention: production of a valve of the abovementioned type which is distinguished by a low circulating pressure with nonetheless high operational reliability, even for relatively high working pressures and relatively large flows. Achieving the object: in conjunction with the features of the generic type, provision is made of a relieving device (EV) which can be activated by the pilot control valve (VV1), is operatively connected to the reset element (6) and controls the resetting effect on the main valve (HV). Furthermore, the relieving device (EV) is designed such that it can be changed over, under the effect of the pilot control valve (VV1), between an activated position with a reduced effect of the reset element (6) on the main valve (HV) and a deactivated position with increased effect of the reset element on the main valve. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A multi-cavity dielectric filter 30 having a single housing 32 for a plurality of resonant cavities 65. The dielectric filter 30 has a plurality of dielectric resonators 42 placed inside housing 32, instead of in individual housings, wherein the resonators 42 are spaced a quarter wave apart and are electrically isolated from one another by conductive isolation plates 44 positioned therebetween. The isolation plates 44 do not make continuous mechanical contact with the interior conducting surface of housing 32, but rather are spaced from the inner surface 77 of housing 32, thereby making assembly of the filter much simpler than if a solid RF connection had to be made. The resonators 42 are positioned inside the housing 32 between the isolation plates 44 and are supported by low loss, low dielectric constant spacers 46. End walls 59 complete the cavity formation at the termination ends 79 of housing 32. For a band reject filter, the cavities are joined by coupling loops connected to a transmission line while for a bandpass filter, apertures are placed in the isolation plates (44') so as to couple electromagnetic energy between adjacent cavities (65).

Abstract: Parallel digital data are transmitted along with a specific synchronization pattern added thereto. Each synchronization pattern adder (11) adds the synchronization pattern at an equal timing for each channel. Parallel data after the synchronization pattern addition, are converted in parallel-to-serial converters (13) into serial data which are in turn converted in an optical transmitter (TX) (20) into optical signal. On the receiving side, the optical signal is converted in an optical receiver (RX) (22) into an electric signal, from which the parallel data are restored in serial-to-parallel converters (14) to be inputted to synchronization pattern detectors (16). The synchronization pattern detectors (16) compare their shift register data and synchronization pattern and hold their synchronization pattern detection signal (31) to be "1" for one time slot if the number of non-accord bits is within one. In the next time slot, a controller (41) recognizes synchronization pattern detection when and only when all the synchronization pattern detection signals (31) are "1". In this way, reliable synchronization pattern detection can be made regardless of the occurrence of any transmission error in the synchronization pattern.

Abstract: Leakage of water from a boiler water system wherein steam is generated in a boiler from feedwater fed to the boiler, and the concentration of impurities in the boiler water within the boiler is reduced by withdrawing fractions thereof as blowdown while admitting additional feedwater as boiler-water makeup, is determined. The boiler has a concentration cycle value, the concentration cycle value being the average value of the concentration of an inert component in the blowdown at steady state (C<sub>F</sub>) divided by the concentration of the inert component in the feedwater (C<sub>I</sub>). The concentration of the inert component in the boiler at steady state varies from a high concentration C<sub>H</sub>, having a value that is higher than C<sub>F</sub>, to a low concentration C<sub>L</sub>, having a value between the (C<sub>I</sub>) and the (C<sub>F</sub>), within a time period. The method comprises:   employing as the inert component an inert tracer;   sensing a characteristic of the inert tracer in the boiler at steady state equivalent to its concentration in the boiler water;   converting the sensed characteristic to a value equivalent to the concentration of the inert tracer in the boiler water; and   activation of a signal when a variance in the cyclic concentration fluctuation of said inert tracer occurs that is consistent with a leakage of boiler water.

Date Jan. 4, 1996The invention relates to a method for storing analysis data, especially digit analysis data in a telephone exchange (21). The data is stored as a tree-like hierarchical data structure that returns the desired result on the basis of given initial data, said data structure comprising records (11; 31; A . . . F) located in several different levels, each record comprising a predetermined number of fields (0 . . . 9, a . . . f), the uppermost level composing the root level of the structure and a single field of a record either being empty or comprising a pointer that points to the destination that may be either a record or a result in a lower level. For enabling new services of a telephone network, such as free numbering, without a continuously increasing need for memory capacity or purchases of devices, stored data is compressed by searching in a single level of the structure all the records the corresponding fields of which are pointing to the same destination, by deleting all except one of the found records and by changing the pointers of upper levels that have pointed to the deleted records so that they point to said one record, whereby said measures are started from the lowest level of the structure, after which they are repeated in the following level if necessary, until the root level is reached.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for converting a set of functions of any software system that does modeling into a corresponding set of parametric functions that, when called, generate not only a resulting model, but also a dependency graph representation of the model. The dependency graph can include directed functions and non-directed constraint relationships, and is used when a change is made to the model so that only affected portions of the model are reevaluated. The dependency graph can be visually presented to a user, and can be created or edited through a visual programming environment. The graph can be modified to change either input values to the model, or the graph elements that represent the functions used in creating the model. When changes to the dependency graph are made, it can be reevaluated to incorporate the changes into the model. When the visual programming environment is used to modify the graph, the environment calls the parametric set of functions. The set of parametric functions is generated by creating wrappers in a standard programming language around the functions of the software system. The dependency graph can also be used to generate a computer program in a standard language that, when executed on the software system, regenerates the model as well as the dependency representation. The computer program can also be edited and then executed on the software system to generate a modified version of the model.
